Unfortunately the Branchline heavyweight coaches aren't in "heavyweight 
era" color scheme either. They have the 1955-1956 dlux yellow lettering 
and black roof.  The listed names on the Branchline website for Pullman 
cars are correct, but I haven't seen the color yet.
I want to model "New York train" 1/2 in both eras, but the paint is 
wrong for 1940 and the roof is wrong for 1962. ARRGGHHHHH!
